Blackcurrent Harvest

 

Watercolour effect from driving rain on the window

Here is the view in a torrential downpour.

I love the watercolour effect. 

Summer fruits ripen early in the heat

The hot july ripened the fruit early.
The last few days brought welcome rain.

 

Yellow Treecreeper outside my office window

This beautiful creature comes with the wrens to feast on aphids from the damson tree.
Ever so delicate and beautiful.
The darkness of the photo is because the sun is behind him.
These little birds have become good friends (with me). The wrens and the bluetits have a few little tiffs about who is going to eat from which leaf, but all in all there seems to be plenty.
 

The Buddha watches the unfolding lotus flower

This is the first lotus to bloom in the pond.
As I sit and contemplate the situation, it reminds me of the Creator observing unfolding of creation.

A very timely image...
